Thanks / post is harder to do, since I'd have to count only posts made since thanks was implemented.

No. that would be thanking an Oily fan or Canucks fan's post.

Damn you, Resolute! You're up by 7 on me to round out the top 10. Time for me to do something crazy and post it here for a nice 50 thanks post.

Instead of searching for who has the most thanks, everyone feel free to go back into my past posts and pad those stats for me. Thanks in advance, you're the man, cool guy. See you at the beach.

I'm guilty (for want of a better word) of that when I start a thread requesting information (e.g. the backyard rink thread). I'll thank as many respondents as possible.

Just the way I am. If I've got a query and someone takes the time to answer my query then it's just basic manners to say thank you.

e.g. Anyone know in what country the fastest growing city in the world is?

Can you tell us the top 25 posters that have thanked others the most?

And then possibly give the top Thanker a customer user title....Thanks! Whore

Awe... I am 35 away from breaking into the top 50. I guess I should copy HOOT's example and start rambling about things I know nothing about while periodically making it seem like I am being friendly to the green posters.

If you craft a reasonable post that tries to find the middle ground of a debate it will do you almost no good.

You need to find a topic and take a firm stance (for good or bad), get up on your soapbox and pound your fist to make people take notice.

It is kind of like politics - it doesn't really matter what you say as long as you say it with conviction. THEN you get thanks.



Or post a funny picture, that works too.

Yah there's one name in the top 50 list that I couldn't believe, 'cause I don't think I've ever seen a post of his that was even worthy of a neutral reaction, never mind a "Thanks!", and your theory fits him perfectly.

"I'm a moron, but I'm loud! Look, I'm outshouting my rivals! Thank me!"

PS - No, I'm not saying who it is. Many of you will undoubtedly figure it out because you have the same reaction, but publicly disrespecting someone is different from privately doing so.

HEY!!

All kidding aside, yup, I think I know who you're talking about. I'm somewhat intrigued, but surprised all the same.

I'm amazed that I'm still up there, I dont get any of the "Mass Thanks" from doing things like OOT threads, Flames news or Game Takes, I'm all natural baby!

Yup... I've had to earn my thanks one smart-ass comment at a time.

What if you only count posts that have been thanked? For example I have 807 thanks in 289 posts for a stellar 2.79 Thanks per Thanked post ratio.

HOOT, on the other hand, may have more thanks overall but he has a measly 2,799 thanks in 1,057 posts for a mediocre 2.65 Thanks/Thanked post ratio.

I thought of that too, but I think it's more important to measure good vs crap, rather than good vs... goodest...

Yah, and it's NOT 4X4, but that's ALL I'm sayin'. It could be you, Locke - could be you.

With any luck, you'll be up all night wondering, "Is it me? Is it... me? IS IT ME?!?! Damn you - damn you all! I knew you were secretly loathing me while smiling to my face - backstabbers and ingrates! I'LL CRUSH YOU LIKE BUGS!"
